Does this describe your symptom?

 
  • Injuries to the inside or outside of the nose.
Types of Nose Injuries
  • Broken nose (nasal fracture): Severe fractures of the nose (e.g., crooked nose) are usually reset the same day in the operating room. Most mild fractures aren't repaired until day 5 to 7 post-injury.
  • Swelling and bruising of the nose without a fracture.
  • Blood clot of the central wall of the nose with risk of cartilage damage and deformed nose.
